Well they have landed in the UK & cleared customs!
So lets bring on the charges & a long wait? Funny thing is I never ordered a long wait.........
I had the notice of charges through the door yesterday from Parcelforce.
Approx £12.50 import VAT.
And £13.50 handling charge!
So a total of about £120 landed. Would have been closer to £110, but I paid for Express Delivery, as I needed them quickly originally!

Not paid for mine yet, best do it tomorrow!
The general rule nowadays is that if the item is shown as a gift and of under £100 value then it doesn't incur the attention of HMC&E.

They only catch some packages going through customs.
Ye all depends with customs, i order in my td04 kits for the starlets from america and recently i got manifold, decat, gaskets, water & oil lines all packaged together without any problems. But got stung for £12 on a set of injectors that came seperate.

How do you pay duty and vat before the part come into the country?
I don't mind paying the duty ant vat, it is the clearance fee that parcel force charge you I don't like paying.
Basically, parcel force pay your customs charge for you and then you pay parcel force the money back, but parcel force then charge you for the transaction.
Bye for Now!
You can't, they have you by the short and curlys I'm afraid.
My Vr4 has just done a similar thing. Had an occasional misfire for a while now. Got seriously sick when arriving home on saturday. Had a look and the nearside front spark plug had been spat out! No threads left in the head either Helicoil kit ordered. Cant see any other damage (Fingers crossed).
Too much is just enough.
would they likes of this kit do the job for inlet mani bolt holes?
